NO WEREWOLVES IN THIS STORY ***Currently being rewritten*** "Look an Alpha in the eyes and he'll find himself a prize." They warned about looking in an Alpha's eyes, but they didn't say that last part. Maybe if they included that tidbit then I would've taken them seriously.

Life gets tragic when a were-snake claims his mate. Sweet Adina comes to love mysterious, brooding Daniel. She is pursued by a possessive, desperate Chester. Both men fight for her, which which will die for his love?
